FAQs – WBJEE 2026 Counselling Dates & Schedule

Common questions about WBJEE 2026 counselling timeline

When did WBJEE 2026 counselling start?

WBJEE 2026 counselling registration opened on June 30, 2026 and closed on July 5, 2026, with choice filling and locking in the same window. Round 1 seat allotment was released on July 7, 2026. The full schedule was published on wbjeeb.nic.in.

How many rounds are there in WBJEE 2026 counselling?

WBJEE 2026 counselling has 3 rounds — Round 1 (allotment released July 7), Round 2 (allotment released July 21, reporting July 21-23), and a Mop-Up round/Round 3 (registration and choice filling closes July 26, allotment result on July 28, 2026). This is the last centralized round before any leftover seats go to institute-level spot admission.

Can I participate in multiple rounds of WBJEE counselling?

Yes. If you accept a seat in Round 1 with the 'Upgradation Yes' option, you remain eligible for Round 2. Candidates not allotted a seat, or allotted but not satisfied, can also participate in Round 2 and the Mop-Up round. Candidates allotted their first-choice seat in Round 1 are not eligible for Round 2.

What happens if I miss the WBJEE 2026 counselling registration deadline?

Missing the registration deadline means you cannot participate in that round of counselling. There is no provision for late registration in that round. You may be able to register afresh in Round 2 or the Mop-Up round if you missed Round 1, subject to seat availability.

Is WBJEE 2026 counselling online or offline?

WBJEE 2026 counselling registration, fee payment, choice filling, and allotment checking are all done online on wbjeeb.nic.in. Document verification and final reporting to the allotted institute require physical presence.
